[Open!] Come forth!

[teachingpeace]

Where: The country of Ame
When: The entire month of April
Notes: Basically, Nagato's health has been improving lately so you'll be able to catch him out and about pretty much anywhere in the country, be it borders or around the city. He's always accompanied by his Deva path, and you might get said path first. In other words, hello, come get trolled.

Nagato had been restless lately. The months before this, it hadn't been such a worrying thing, just him consolidating his energy to reverse the damage he'd done to himself by overextending, but now... now he just wanted to be out. Out where he could interact more directly with the contact rain in his country, where he could watch his people without needing to send his paths out to do it for him...

This meant that people who had never really gotten to meet him before, in spite of having been in Ame since he'd taken control, were finally getting the chance to see him face to face, instead of simply being in contact with his paths.

She looked crushed, momentarily, staring up at Nagato before turning her head to Orile himself. It lasted about as long as most anything lasted to a six year old - perhaps fifteen second or so.

"... Awww. Fiiiiiiine, but I wanna play RIGHT after dinner!" Seeming quite insistent on this point, she nodded fervently.

"Of course. Right after." Orile smiled as he set her on her feet again. "Go on, I'll be along soon enough." He promised, watching her retreating form as it splashed up water and mud until it was completely gone into the distance. Clearing his throat, he bowed lightly to Nagato. "My apologies, Kami-sama. You appear well."

"Nothing to apologize for." He shook his head slightly, glancing after the girl, then looked back to the man's face, his own expression a bit wry. "It seems your sibling has no patience for explaining her game however."

"Mm, she can be pretty whimsical. This, I think, was just her mistaking your not knowing for a refusal." He mused, laughing lightly. "After all, it was simply tag." Well, 'run away from the monster', but essentially just tag.

"And how was I to know it?" He felt his lips cur into an amused smile. "She didn't exactly tell me and I do try to stay out of the minds of those I'm not in need of contacting urgently."

[strengthofmybow]

"I would never deign to think you would." Orile chuckled, brushing his hair back behind one ear, if only so that it was... well, less likely to stick to his face and hinder his vision. "If I know her, she'll decide halfway home to turn around and come try and spy on us, without her 'terrible monster' overseer." The second laugh was much easier, his smile broadening slightly. "What brings you out today, if I may ask?"

[teachingpeace]

"Simply... taking turns with my own eyes. It was a long time before I started that, as I have no doubt all of my shinobi were well aware." Given that he'd avoided his own populace to the point he still wasn't really recognized even around his own people... it was a good change. They'd come to know him and recognize him beyond his Paths, now.
